Comix of Cult and Occult

Comic book counterculture has a long vibrant history full of scares and panics, especially on the occult side, ranging from the Compendium Maleficarum to Lovecraft - and then there are the comic book religious tracts produced by cults like The Process Church and the Children of God. The legendary Jason Atomic traces the cult/occult history of comics in a vividly engaging illustrated talk; it culminates with the tale of how this counter cultural obsession resulted in his creating his famed Satanic Mojo Comix. A great night is promised: Jason is an enchanting speaker. Join us for the drinks social afterward.
